Problem: I have a 3-level custom post type relationship hierarchy - grandparent > parent > child. On my single grandparent post page, I would like to display a View of child posts, with a custom search filtered by parent. By default, all the children of the current grandparent should be displayed, and the user should be able to select a parent as a filter.
Solution: There are two options: use a URL parameter and a post relationship filter, or use two nested Views.
URL parameter approach: Create a View that shows child posts, filtered by Post Relationship (grandparent > parent). Set the filter query to respond to a URL parameter. Apply this URL parameter to all links to the grandparent single post page: http://yoursite.com/state/washington?wpv-post-relationship-state=57273
Nested View approach: Create a View that shows child posts, filtered by post relationship, where the parent is the current post in the Loop. In the Loop Output, add the information you want to display about each child post. Then, create a View that shows parent posts, where all parents are children of the current grandparent post. Insert the child View into the Loop Output of the parent View.
Problem:
I need to programmatically get the results of a View and/or check if the View even returns some results.
Solution:
Views is a tool that is thought to display data on the Front End of a Website, using ShortCodes.
You can, of course, show a View anywhere you want, by using PHP.
We provide a Function to display a View with PHP:
render_view()
This allows you to display a View with PHP.
To check if a View returns any results at all, you can use the function
get_view_query_results()
An example:
- If a View returns no results, it will produce:
array(0) { }
Hence you can check:
if (empty (get_view_query_results(12))) {
echo "view has no results";
//or anything else, as example a Custom Text
}
and
if (!empty (get_view_query_results(12))) {
echo "view has results";
//or anything else, as example View results
}
To return the exact amount of posts a view returns:
if ($amount < 5) {
echo "less than five";
}
if ($amount == 4) {
echo "4";
}
These are Code samples and need to be adapted. They do not extend Toolset functionality, but allow you to extract data, and check it, with Custom Code.
Problem: I would like to display an avatar image from a custom field, if that field has been set for the current post. If not, I would like to display a default image instead.
Solution: Use conditional statements that check the value of the avatar custom field. If the field is empty, show an image from your Media Library by using the Add Media button. If the field is not empty, show the custom field image using the Fields and Views button. Example:
